Trigger Tracks: Indifference

Ever just feel kind of in-between? Not quite depressed, but void of a specific emotion? You only want to sit there staring at the wall. You feel apathetic to life at that moment. You are an average person on this big spinning blue rock. The song “Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm” by the Crash Test Dummies always conveyed this to me. It is a collection of average stories with a simple hook. Mixed in with the soothing deep voice of Brad Roberts, this song had all the makings of feeling indifferent about life. The video takes you there visually. The school play setup and tone makes it feel like an “another day in the life” kind of story. Everyone is just sitting and watching not saying anything. It makes you kind of wonder… umm… eh, forget it.
